France, Sept. 1. Firmly resolved as they are to submit to any sacrifice to ensure victory, the Paris ians have shown far more passive resistance to limitations of bread and amusements than to any of the many restrictions that they have to endure. The war began by robbing the Parisian of his little rolls and crescents which he was convinced was the only civilised form of taking the day's first meal. Then it took away his fancy bread and now the last straw, it has taken away white bread altogether, leaving him a brown substance with a very hard crust which covers a doughy and indigestible inside.

The Official Journal has just published the decree regulating the making and consumption of bread, and explaining how the bread cards will operate when they come into use next October. Children from one year to six are allowed two thirds of a pound of bread a day. Everyone over six years can have l.t pounds. "In all hotels and restaurants, the decree reads, 'bread must be counted separately and only be served in slices at one cent each." (Correspondence of A.

Thirtv buildings, including several rooming houses, were destroyed by fire last night in the quarter of town occupied by Mexicans and It was estimated by town authorities that TOO people had been made homeless. The fire was said to have been started, by an overturned lamp. Low water pressure handicapped firefighters.

Most of th buildings were of flimsy construction and the property loss was relatively small.

Jerome bad planned a celebration of Labor day. which was canceled, and the committee ln charge announced that JISOO donated for prises would be diverted to relief work.
